5.0 out of 5 stars
One of the cleverst traditional mysteries I've read.,
By Barbara Petry (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Buried in Quilts (Hardcover)
Buried in Quilts is one of those wonderful new breed of mysteries that allows you to see inside another world, in this case a small town in Indiana, and inside other people, too. It's not just about a murder, or quilts, the town or the people; the book is a wonderful quilt itself, weaving all the separate pieces into a marvelous whole. I think what I liked best is that the clues to the murder were right there for everyone to see. I don't know a thing about quilting and when the book reached its conclusion I found myself saying, "I should have figured that out!" There was a twist that caught me fair and square. I recommend this book very highly!

Great read--even for non-quilters,

This review is from: Buried In Quilts: A Joan Spencer Mystery (Joan Spencer Mysteries) (Paperback)
I picked up this book on the recommendation of another Amazon reviewer--and I'm glad I did. I thoroughly enjoyed "Buried in Quilts." The mystery is very good. The author gives enough teasing clues so that a clever reader could solve the mystery but does not make the solution so obvious that it spoils the suspense.The book has just enough characters to make the book interesting but not so many that it is difficult to follow. And, although I'm not a musician or quilter, the author provided enough information to give me an intriguing glimpse into each subject. In fact, it broadened my understanding and appreciation for handmade quilts. Now, I'm off to the library to find more books in this series that are out-of-print.
